So like, I'm seeing such posts like "Namor this, Namor that but I was looking at [x person]. The straights are so annoying," (hi, I'm bi. We exist and also find Tenoch to be hot).

While I normally would be on board with this kind of sentiment and I get it, (cause again, hi, I'm bi), I would just like to remind yall that José Tenoch Huerta Mejía is a 41-year-old Mexican actor of Indigenous descent. Indigenous inclusion in both Hollywood and Latin television/ cinema is rare to come by, as is seeing them getting their flowers.

I would also like to point y'all to this tweet:

Darker-skinned Mexicans have a notoriously harder time getting on screen because of such concepts like Latinidad & Latin America's constant reach towards Spain (and by extension, whiteness).

All I'm saying is, let him have this. Our peoples rarely ever get this.

#tenoch huerta #namor the sub mariner #black panther #wakanda forever #bpwf #black panther wakanda forever #marvel #mcu #yes all the women are amazing as is tenoch so can we stop making digs at ppl for enjoying namor #like when was the last time an Indigenous Mexican actor became the latest heartthrob? never!
